I think its uber klassy that you have a corona in the background. But at least its “light” right? LOL.
This sounds SO good! Love that bottle of Corona in the background … adds just the right “draw”. 🙂
I saw this recipe and just had to make it. We didn’t have the cilantro and had to use kidney beans instead, but mmmmmmm, mmmmmmmmm, good.
